Hi Mel. You have every reason to be upset. My apologies. m(_ _)m —> (Deep Japanese bow)
In a few weeks I can hopefully explain what happened. More images coming soon!

Hope you’re doing well, Kjeld-san! We’ve not been able to cope without your heavy doses of J-street fashion ;D

Wow! This girl is exotic looking… and she just absolutely radiates COOL! And is it just me, or am i noticing a pattern with this style of glasses? I saw it for a while here in the US too, which is what, to me, makes it awesome! Its sort of like a global trend =). I * love * the combination of cheetah print and red! Its one of my favorite color schemes and something that I have done before too!
Another reason that I am a big fan of this outfit as a whole is because it is something that I would for a fact wear! Ever since I started coming on this site frequently, the fashion i see here has GREATLY influenced me. I know I’ve said it before, but seriously. I feel like seeing people like her has made me feel more free and more creative about the things that I can throw together….

@Floof: Thanks for caring!
@Etsune: You are right about the glasses. Stores here have been carrying lots of glasses in this style for at least a year now, probably longer.

I just glossed RIGHT over the glasses, I guess because I’ve been seeing so many like them that I’m starting to expect/overlook it. I LOVE those pants. Pondering trying to rock some like that with one of my longer sweaters or jackets. I do NOT have the kind of tush-confidence this lady has. I love her confidence and comfort – that’s what takes this from just a cute outfit to a showcase of true style.

@Kjeld: Lol its BASICALLY the same over here in America. And also, what a lot of people will do is get the 3-d glasses in movie theaters, take them home when they’re done with the movie, punch out the lenses, and you get glasses like these :D
@Abby: Wow, I’m in the same boat with Kjeld here…I COMPLETELY missed that cross…Nice observation c:

@Abby & Etsune: Good to know that I am not the only one. ^ _ – @Etsune: 3-d glasses as a fashion accessory. Funny. I don’t think I have seen that yet.

お久しぶり！It’s been a while the last time I commented here. I have been busy with moving to Japan. I’ve been here for around a month now and it feels like I never left. (^^) I’m in Miyagi-ken now, but I’ll let you know if I go to Tokyo, Kjeld. I hope we will be able to meet for that drink! ;)

Don’t get me wrong, I like Chitose’s outfit and all, but when I saw her photo, suddenly Garth from Wayne’s World appeared in front of my eyes. I really loved Wayne’s World, as a teenager!

@gionbaby: Hi there! A Happy Belated New Year! I was wondering how you were doing. Have you settled in Miyagi, or are you there just temporarily?

I can totally understand why Garth popped into your mind. Now that you have mentioned it, I will have trouble to get him out of my mind when I see Chitose…

seriously?
Of course there are women, but I do not think they are doing it with clothes)
this anti-advertising? Or they do not like to be attractive?

@Aleksandr: Ha, interesting that you automatically equate suggestive clothing with looking attractive. I think that many Japanese women (not all) would disagree. They don’t think suggestive clothing is attractive, just slutty.
